Words of Wisdom

 

One of my bouquets from the summer of 2020

"You don't have the power to make rainbows or waterfalls, sunsets or roses, but you do have the power to bless people by your words and smiles. You carry within you the power to make the world better."

  1. Those words are so true, Carla. What a beautiful bouquet from your home grown flowers.

    I can't wait for the snow to be gone and for the flowers to grow again. It's amazing the beauty we see in flowers and it's so exciting when a new bud burst into bloom. It always brings a smile, even the scent brings back memories. Even the unwanted dandelions on the lawn, brings back sweet memories of dandelion bouquets from the kids...

    Only 11 days to Spring...

    Hugs, Julia

    Lovely words. I brought the pharmacy banana bread yesterday. They are the busiest pharmacy I've ever seen. They are polite and kind and caring. I' m a 2 on the eeanagram scale, so I do like to give.
